Pros

One of the program professors does care about students' success in the graduate program. I liked how our graduate program had a project portfolio for each class (Taskstream). Tuition cost at PNW was very affordable.

Cons

Once you graduate from the program, the former program chair ignores you from then on. The former program chair misled students over the course of the program giving us false hope and reassurance. Graduate program did not prepare its graduates for real jobs. We were not exposed to e-Learning authoring tools which limit employability in the job market.

Pros

Flexible schedule, pension plan is available. Work for an excellent employer in higher education.

Cons

Some departments have lowpay rates. Nepotism is practiced and it’s not clear if this is allowed per university policy.
